not sure what you mean. if i had As4s (ie no flush draw at all) i would have bet the same or maybe 0.9 on the flop. then at least 8 or 9/10 of pot on turn for sure. because villain has so many flush draws in his range, these have decent equity against my hand compared to (for example) 35s and i would need to adjust my betsizing up because the smaller my bet, the less of a mistake it is for villain to call with his draw. however when i had the NFD accompanying my straight, i was still going to bet because there is a bucketload of value, and i want the pot to be big enough to get villain's stack in on the river. however i adjusted my betsizing down so as to induce a call from villain because he's drawing dead (as a guess) 90% of the time so i am making a mistake really if i bet full pot and make him fold a hand which he thinks has like 9-12 outs, which really has none. i have no idea how this guy plays, maybe he calls pot size bets on any street with any FD, in which case for sure betting pot on flop and turn is the best choice. but without such reads, my priority was to build the pot while not enticing him to make the correct play, which is folding. that took ages and i probably repeated myself 10 times. assignment time.
